Explanation preview
Paul and Barnabas have fled to Lystra after opposition in Iconium, and this verse introduces a man whose whole life has been shaped by inability to walk. Luke, the narrator, notes that he was lame from birth, a detail that echoes the healing of the beggar in Acts 3 and signals a significant act of power to come.
